An airy Seattle home celebrates earth-friendly design
Recycled materials add character to this 2,300-square-foot home in Seattle, Wash. Designer-builder Joe Schneider organized
the main floor around a two-story, barrel-vaulted room containing the living-dining area and kitchen. Identical upper-level
bedroom suites overlook that space and a striking double stairway. Salvaged Douglas fir beams support the loft rooms and frame
the stairs. Recycled floorboards panel the kitchen walls. The luxurious-looking floor is walnut-faced plywood. » see room

Outdoor Paradise
Who says the back porch has to be attached to the house? One Memphis family enjoys theirs, which is nestled in the heart of the back yard. Although the structure was part of the property when the family bought the home several years ago, its size and scale seem ideal for today. The screened porch section measures 8 x 12 feet; exposed beams on the inside give it an open feel. To the left, an enclosed room that's used for storing outdoor equipment takes up another eight feet. - Integrated Cabinets
